Bug ID: 508457
Summary: It should not be possible to assign Fn key (registerd
as "Wake Up") as a single key shortcut as it then gets
triggered all the time when using it in combinations
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version First 6.4.4
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_keys

SUMMARY
Thinkpads (some? all? Mine is X1 Extreme Gen 2) have Fn key that "sudo libinput
debug-events" sees as:
-event3 KEYBOARD_KEY +318.463s KEY_WAKEUP (143)
pressed
It can be assigned as a shortcut, leading to the action that the shortcut is
bound to be launched whether Fn+something is used.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a thinkpad with Fn key.
2. Launch kcmshell6 keys and assign the key (it will register as "Wake Up") to
for example "Launch KCalc", hit "Apply"
3. Try to change brightness with FN+F5/F6 (might vary depending on your exact
laptop model).
OBSERVED RESULT
Watch a multiplication of KCalc windows.
EXPECTED RESULT
Well, just the brightness is changed. Or it is impossible to assign Fn on its
own as a shortcut (if that is the case, use rshould be informed as to why it is
not possible).
